USAGE CAUTIONS
1. This product is weak for static electricity by designed with high-speed integrated circuit so protect against static
electricity when handling.
2. By-pass capacitor of more than 0.1
μ
F is used between VCC and GND near device. Also, ensure that the
distance between the leads of the photocoupler and capacitor is no more than 10 mm.
3. Pin 2 (which is an NC*1 pin) can either be connected directly to the GND pin on the LED side or left open.
Unconnected pins should not be used as a bypass for signals or for any other similar purpose because this may
degrade the internal noise environment of the device.
*1 NC: Non-connection (No connection)
4. Avoid storage at a high temperature and high humidity.

(4) Cautions
• Fluxes
Avoid removing the residual flux with freon-based and chlorine-based cleaning solvent.
2. Cautions regarding noise
Be aware that when voltage is applied suddenly between the photocoupler’s input and output or between VCC
and GND at startup, the output side may enter the on state, even if the voltage is within the absolute maximum
ratings.

“High Quality”: Transportation equipment (automobiles, trains, ships, etc.); traffic control systems; anti-disaster systems; anti-
crime systems; safety equipment; and medical equipment not specifically designed for life support.
“Specific”: Aircraft; aerospace equipment; submersible repeaters; nuclear reactor control systems; medical equipment or
systems for life support (e.g. artificial life support devices or systems), surgical implantations, or healthcare
intervention (e.g. excision, etc.), and any other applications or purposes that pose a direct threat to human life.
8. You should use the Renesas Electronics products described in this document within the range specified by Renesas Electronics,
